    I skipped the red pepper flakes. Italian sausage is spicy enough. - 5/22/19

    This is SO GOOD - made this recipe last night - BUT
    used half and half for the heavy cream and used game processed Italian Sausage, spinach instead of Kale and the broth that I made from our Thanksgiving Turkey. - 12/1/11

    Fantastic! I lightened it up a little by using fat free evaporated milk instead of the heavy cream and did half Italian turkey sausage and half regular Italian sausage. Even with the modifications, we still couldn't tell the difference between this soup and the one from olive garden. - 9/4/11
